Virtual Programming: Week 4
Greetings!

The Holden Kitchen is the heartbeat of Holden Village. It is a central gathering place, a source of delicious warmth, joy, welcome, and connection. Here we bake and break bread together.

Watch artisan bread being made by our kitchen staff, then try it out at home with this delicious recipe! Savor a virtual glimpse into the bustling, seamless teamwork that goes into each and every meal. And listen to former Food Service Lead Chance Voigt describe the overarching philosophy that guides the Kitchen: how our food choices form our relationships with ourselves, with one another, with the earth, and with the sacred thread that runs through it all.

Faithfully,
The Kitchen Team

"Holden exists for what Holden does down lake... The food philosophy is here to bring people into a way of thinking about food that they can bring with them."

~ Chance Voigt

"We are committed to serving food that is care-ful, food that is both lavish and responsible.

We strive to cook in ways that are healthy, celebrative, delicious, expressive, and that minimize harm to individuals and communities both near and far.

We seek to cook and eat in ways that promote the health of the planet. Through these practices, we lean into our accountability to and love for the Sacred."
